Considering this was precursor of more drama to follow, I felt it was decent episode.
Vinu is melting. He was looking at Savi with Virat & Sai & he would rather be there than eating pizza with mumma. HE would have agreed for the alternative Virat offered of seating little further away from Sai if P hadn't intervened. He enjoyed star gazing when Sai was part of it. He responded to her question & was happy then. I wanted Kaku to remind P that just like Savi, Vinu is part of Sai Virats family too & they wanted him to be part of it & Sai Savi are not Virats other family. Anyway Vinu is almost ready to come out of his magic spell but he is being Virats son repeating same record of not leaving his mumma ever.
Couldn't take Sakhi scene. It was just Sai telling her whatever P thinks she has is stolen from Sai.
Watched last scene of Virat pushed to praise P & ending up visually praising Sai in loop just to watch P's beizzati. Her downfall has started & her usual manipulation is leading even bigger insulting failures. Ninad made Virat go to her & praise her. Don't know why she was thrilled when he said you are looking beautiful. The look on his face 2 seconds before that was of kid Savi's age who is asked to say something nice to a friend with whom she has fought 5 minutes ago just to make amends. & then he sees the one he was thinking about when Ninad was describing in very poetic way. The look on his face with Sai coming down draped in the saree he specially got for her, looking like an angel. NB did amazing in the whole scene. The way he tilted to see beyond P. Too good. The whole Chavhan khandan has to know the scion of the family is a goner. He didn't even acknowledge or notice his little princess. His eyes were only at Sai. Reminded me of the old scene where they are discussing having to go to Ladakh for Samrat paperwork & Sai walks in bringing breakfast & tea with Ashwini.
I still don't know what is BK's game plan. Virat is still stuck on P se vadaa but falling more & more obviously for Sai. Feel Ashwinis word about love taking over farz is going to be true. Has to be Sai being in danger. That's always a trigger for him. I don't have words for Ninad & Ashwini. Bhagwan aise mata pita kisi ko na de. Not just their son but they are not thinking about their grandkids too. They should have been first to tell Virat when Vinu's truth came out that he should get his family together or he is spoiling 5 lives. Well now Kaku is full on team Sairat or rather SaVi.
Precap is interesting. Virat is in senses acting drunk. At least he is not like he was during past two holis. Is he pretending to treat Sai as his wife to protect her? is it just for that or something more? I was also confused about Sai telling Sunny that Pakhi is now Virat's legal wife. She stressed on legal. Is that what is official now. Its parallel of post Shruti holi where Sai is in Virat's place. I got even more confused after Sakhi interaction. I thought Sai was telling her that P is claiming what's rightfully Sai's.
But like the fact that in that scene or even in last scene Sai is calm. I like that about this current Sai. She doesn't have outburst like she used to. She expresses herself only in front of Virat, UM & abba. Her interaction with Jagtap is again unique. If at all Virat decides to go for happy family with Sai, he will have to work really hard.
